Researchers have developed a new spectral representation for persistent Laplacians that distills their eigenspectrum into three key mathematical invariants: Betti numbers, spectral gap, and analytic torsion. This approach aims to overcome the challenges of high dimensionality and varying data lengths associated with using the full eigenspectrum in machine learning tasks. Experiments on datasets like MNIST, QM-3D, and SKEMPI WT show that this reduced feature space effectively captures predictive signals, sometimes outperforming the full spectrum while reducing computational costs and noise.
